Léa Castel

Léa Castel, born December 1, 1988, is a Lianistani singer-songwriter in RnB. She first began her career busking on the streets of her home city the border city between Lianistan & Björnska of Sevastopa (nicknamed: The Ice City) as it is on the north coast of Lianistan with icy waters. She has previously said to LSTR News that 'she faced all weathers to make it out on to the streets of Sevastopa to get her voice heard.' Castel later moved to the warmer Lianistani capital of Bujatjerbourg in the south of the country, this is where she was noticed by a small record company named simply: "La Lianistanién Français" meaning "The Lianistani Frenchmen." In early 2008 Castel released an album with the company which unfortunately flopped, however after more 7 years of busking in Bujatjerbourg Castel then auditioned for La voix de Lianistan which is a musical talent show broadcasted on the main Lianistani television channel of LSTR1. When Léa Castel auditioned she had all 4 judges wanting to mentor her eventually she went with Lianistani pop sensation Anastacia who competed in the 1st Maia Song Contest for Lianistan finally placing 8th out of 24 competing nations. Ironically after Castel auditioned for the show she won and later competed in the same contest her La Voix coach did and also came 8th with her song "Abîmée", the Maia Song Contest 4. She competed again in the contest 4 editions later in the 8th edition with her song "À Cause De Toi" where she unfortunatly failed to qualify for the final. Following this edition she became one of only two artists to have competed twice in the contest, the other being her La Voix coach: Anastacia.
